This article analyze the productive regional specialization and the territorial vulnerability of the sugarcane municipalities in the Triângulo Mineiro/Alto Paranaíba, a region that had a strong growth of sugarcane industry between 2000 and 2014. The theoretical and statical-documentary systematization and interviews allowed us to conclude that several municipalities in this region have became highly specialized and dependent of the production and/or processing of sugarcane and industrial derivate (sugar, ethanol and bioelectricity), resulting in a worrying state of territorial vulnerability, especially in small cities. The territory use plaster caused by spatial model of occupation of sugarcane industry in these places resulted in the reduction of the productive diversity in the rural space and the dependency almost exclusive of the secondary and tertiary sectors to the agroindustrial operating. It represents several social and economic implications, such as happened recently in Canápolis, Capinópolis, Fronteira and Ibiá that had sugarcane industry units deactivated.
